Peppercorn Filet Mignon Spring Salad

If you do not have a mortar and pestle you will not get the consistency of peppercorns you need for this recipe - most grinders will just not get you the desired texture. It's a good investment trust me. Outside of that this recipe doesn't get any simpler:

Grind whole peppercorns with mortar and pestle.

Rub steaks with olive oil.

Rub/heavily coat steaks with ground peppercorns.

Grill steak to your liking and by the way, your liking is medium rare (roughly 4-6 minutes per side on a hot grill).

Arrange organic spring mix in bowl and add anything else you like in a salad.

Good crumbled blue cheese is a must.

Apply dressing of your choice (Oil and Vinegar does nicely) to salad before the steak.

Slice the steak and add to salad.
